It is true my beard is gray and I wear one most the time but the handle was a hunting accident, nothing I chose but was given by one of my best friends. He died but the name stuck for a while, well, the one he stuck me with, it isn't the complete name but I can't print the rest!! It had something to do with a group of guys and a lot of beer though. I only use it in his memory. Nothing to do with age or wisdom, just beer.
It was a duck hunting trip when I got stuck with it too. Decoy anchor weight is just a strip of very soft lead so it can be twisted around the neck or anchor of the decoy, they are pretty high dollar too but would work great, it shapes very well and can be hammered into some odd shapes.
The epoxy and shot or shot melted and poored into a custom shaped foil form is still my choices. When I installed a 40cc gasser in that plane I tried to remove some of that lead/epoxy mix and it really stuck in that glass cowl very well. I had to use a heat gun and hand held pry to remove it.
